]]>This report is part of a series of annual thematic reports prepared under the workplan
of the Adaptation Committee to provide information on adaptation to Parties and the broader international adaptation community.

The Adaptation Committee decided to focus the 2014 report on institutional arrangements for adaptation, considering their critical importance for adaptation planning and implementation.

With this publication, the Adaptation Committee aims to raise awareness of current institutional arrangements that have been set up to support adaptation. The aim is to provide focus on the importance of improving institutional arrangements at all levels, so as to better manage future challenges posed by climate change within the multidimensional context of modern day socio- economic and developmental pressures.

]]>his book is designed for individuals who are exploring the best means of incorporating climate adaptation perspectives into their water resources management work, particularly if they are interested in mainstreaming that work in the context of other drivers that affect water supply and demand such as urbanization, demographic change, ecological shifts, and economic cycles.

It contains interactive materials such as interviews, videos, and animations that are meant to provide climate adaptation advice and information for professionals working in water and/or climate adaptation areas.

Encompassing an array of climate change related issues within Asia and the Pacific, the projects are subdivided into three themes: (1) Assessing and Reducing Climate Change Risks across Sectors and Timescales; (2) Developing Tools for Assessing Economic and Non-economic L&D; and (3) Integrating CCA, DRR and L&D Reduction into Policy Development.

]]>This publication details new projects funded by the APN in 2014 under its Climate Adaptation Framework. These focused activities tackle the links between climate change adaptation (CCA) and disaster risk reduction (DRR) in the context of loss and damage (L&D).
